Looked into the ICC25 Heroic DK lookalike, really want that set, but I loathe pugs. Maybe I'll look into this OpenRaid business as well!

I also hate that the enchant glow is going to ruin the sword... Might just Mongoose that thing up! It's farm time, anyway.

Yeah, I've been looking at the Blood Draining enchant from Wrath too. Anyway, I'm not sure if I'm ACTUALLY prepared to waste my weapon enchant. I doubt my healers would notice the difference, but you know... It just feels wrong! We'll see.

That is a great mog look. I have actually used that same (armor) look for a mog set (admittedly easier for me to acquire) That shield with sword look fantastic with it.

That's one of the reasons I swapped back to Alliance after being Horde for a while... First I was a male tauren, then female blood elf, then... I realised I had ran out of viable options! I actually tried making a male blood elf, going for something like this figure:

But whatever I tried, it was impossible to make the in-game male belfs look masculine.

It's quite refreshing in Diablo 3 to see the characters completely switch stances when you equip different weapon types. Each looks unique, and everything from how they move to how they stand still, are fabulous looking. A vast improvement over WoW's action figure "this is me standing with my arms at my sides" "ok now this is me standing with my arms at my sides with generic weapon A stuck to my hand" look where everyone just looks kinda frumpy.

WoW could definitely need some artistic upgrades yeah, in terms of character models. Like Klaudandus says, updating those will help a bit, though they probably won't do anything about weapon/combat animations I guess.

I used a 2H samurai style sword with my Wizard in D3 for a while - The way she held it while running was absolutely fantastic! ^^ These days I'm using a huge 2H axe, not quite so graceful, but better than the clunky 2H hammer my Enchantress is using....

Dammit caster loot, y u so no staves or wands...

I play a female character, so I can't really claim masculinity myself - I'm just sayin'. Whip out your male blood elf, and just look at her default pose! Or her beard! Even their beards are womanly! :<

Now, I'm not saying there's anything wrong with being womanly - We all know women are superior beings anyway. Just saying that they're not real men!

This discussion can SO QUICKLY turn bad though, so... Let's just...

PONIES, you say? I can get behind that. I totally need to catch up on MLP.....Not really sure that's the right way to head either. Why do I have a feeling we're too good at accidentally derailing threads?

I take offense at that one :p

Me too, but I don't have a high ground to complain, considering I got ponies on my sig/avatar. XD

Only race I like more than male belves are male worgen. That being said, my "main" is a female human priest... I'm too attached to race change her (though she typically gets a new hairstyle/color for each xpac.)

Oddly enough, I don't really like nelves though...

@belf beards: they're called goatees/chin tufts/soul patches.viewtopic.php?p=727612#p727612Puts them around the "unsavory/threatening" area of trustworthiness...
